Tracy Morgan 'Passes Out' at Emmys & Fools Us All (VIDEO)

OMG. Did you watch the Emmys last night? And if you didn't, did you at least hear that Tracy Morgan passed out on stage and just laid there for like five minutes and nobody even went up to help him?

Yes, of course the whole thing was nothing but a prank pulled by Tracy and Jimmy Kimmel -- who ultimately fooled plenty of Twitter users into thinking that Tracy had actually passed out -- causing them to immediately turn on their TVs to see what was going on and whether or not Tracy was ok.

The fun started when Jimmy told the audience that he wanted to pull a prank on people who were not tuning in for the Emmys last night. He asked for a volunteer to help him out, and Tracy happily obliged and came up on stage.

But honestly, if I'd seen that tweet? I'd have been rushing to my TV to see what all the fuss was about. I mean, it's pretty hard to ignore something as huge as someone fainting on stage when all of Twitter is buzzing about it.

(Bravo, Jimmy and Tracy. Bravo.)

Were you one of the people who believed the Tracy Morgan hype on Twitter and wound up tuning in for the Emmys because of it?
